Darkest Light - COMPLETE (bxb story tagalog/english)

Chapter 2

*    *    *

Isang tao lang naman ang hindi ako hinusgahan dahil isa akong Howard. Si Alex.. even my mom expect me to handle it fine. Hindi nila alam na nahihirapan ako.

Alexander.. He's someone that captured my attention from the first time I saw him. Even though we talked after 3 years of being strangers and spend the other 2 years bickering. Siguro nga.. Duwag talaga ako. Kahit hindi halata sa panlabas.. The facade that I'm using.

"Alex! Gumising ka ano ba?!! Alex!!"

He just fainted. Wh-what the hell is going on?!

Tinapik ko yung pisngi nya and cradled his smaller form in my arms. Nanginginig yung katawan nya. Hindi ko na alam ang gagawin ko.. I was panicking.

"Alex!! Fuck it, talk to me!!!" I shook him and he muttered something.

"M-med.." Dun pa lang naintindihan ko na. I quickly grab his bag na malapit lang samin at tinapon lahat ng laman and medicine bottle fell. I open it and grab two capsules.

"Okay lang ba dalawa? Alex!!" He did a short nod and I grab a water bottle I always keep on my bedside table.

"Here, c'mon! Inumin mo to!"

"H-hurts.." I froze as I saw tears fell from his forest eyes. Nasasaktan sya..

"Fucking shit!!" I cursed and drank the water. I tilted his head at pinisil ko yung pisngi nya para bumuka yung bibig nya. Sinubo ko sa kanya yung gamot at pinainom sya ng tubig. Using my mouth. I don't know what came to me.. I just did it. I just kissed him. Kahit anong tingin doon. Hinalikan ko sya. A man.. I felt his lips move as he drank the medicine and I pulled away. Shocked.

"Al-Alex.." What was that...? This..? This feeling..

Unti-unting humupa ang panginginig nya and he barely open his eyes to meet mine. I wiped his chin from the spilled water and he just eyed me.

"Can you stand?"

"Can't you wear something?" His voice came out horse and silent.

"Tigil-tigilan mo ko ah!! Hindi mo ba alam kung gaano ako natakot sa nangyayare sayo?!" I snapped and he surprisingly.. cling to me. Humawak lang sya sa mga balikat ko and hid his face on my neck.

"Sorry.." Then he appologized. I easily lift him up. Ang gaan nya. Parang wala nga akong buhat. For a moment I just stood there. Holding him in my arms.. felt weird.. but comfortable. Gusto ko syang mahagkan ng ganto. Malamig yung malambot nyang balat. Payat sya't maliit. His hair was naturally brown in color and his eyes are in deep amber. Everything about him.. Lahat-lahat. Sa unang pagkita ko pa lang sa kanya..

I fell deeply in-love with him..

A man..

And the incidental kiss awhile ago proven all my hidden feelings to be true..

Mahal ko si Alex.. Matagal na.

"I'll call an ambulance." I said as I put my pants on and dialed on my phone pero may pumigil sakin.

"No. I'm fine.."

"Fine my ass! Tigilan mo ko Alex o kakaladkarin kita sa ospital!" I'm furious. Galit ako sa sarili ko.. Kasi hinayaan kong mangyare to..

"It's my fault anyway." I said and he grip onto my arm.

"Ano bang sinasabi mo?" He looked at me confused. Ramdam ko padin ang panginginig ng kamay nya.
